ReamMeister – Shift Fork – AH725

IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY & TOOL COST

ReamMeister exchangeable head system cost 1/3 of conventional solid reamer. RM still remains cost efficient even without regrinding service. In addition, the customer was using the solid reamer at low cutting parameters to avoid edge fracture that could not be repaired by regrinding. Hence, 1.8 times productivity increase was achieved with RM combined with consistent part precision.
